Sky Poker is an online poker room owned by the British Sky Broadcasting Group (BSkyB). Sky may not be a well-known name everywhere, but residents of the United Kingdom will be quite familiar with the brand - it's a major television broadcaster in the UK and Ireland.

As of this week, Sky Poker is Rakeback.com's newest partner poker room. Players considering trying out Sky Poker should be happy to learn that BSkyB is a public company listed on the London Stock Exchange, so there is significant oversight of their operations.

Additionally, many British poker players who are familiar with the Sky brand may be likely to play at Sky Poker when they're considering playing online poker. It is an independent poker room, so the number of recreational players at the site may be quite high.

Players who sign up for Sky Poker through Rakeback.com will receive an instant bonus of £10, and can earn up to 65% cash back on their play.
